A video suggesting that Kamala Harris has selected Josh Shapiro as her vice-presidential pick has circulated online, reportedly due to an accidental leak by the Mayor of Philadelphia. The video, which was meant to be released next week, was compiled from a press conference where Pennsylvania elected officials campaigned for Shapiro. This incident, attributed to a staffer, has raised questions about the Harris campaign's media strategy, which has been tightly controlled. Harris is expected to officially announce her vice-presidential pick over the weekend, with less than four months remaining until the election.
